Thanks to all contributors, various valuable points came out here:-) In recognition of considerable community interest, the topic even deserved a place at BBO billboard.

This may be a difference between what a 3♥ bid looks like in Acol and 2/1 I don't know, pretty much any hand too good for 2♥ with 6 hearts to the A empty has to rebid 3♥ so I'm not agreeing hearts at this stage, on a bad day, partner has AQ, Axxxxx, KQ, Kxx, and you might go off in 4♥ with 6♠ on (spades 3-2 offside, hearts 4-2). As it is make J♥ a small one and 6♠ is the slam to be in.


it doesn't matter what system you're playing. bad players playing 2/1 jump rebid 3h on axxxxx. good players playing acol (with a client presumably) rebid 2m on hands with extra strength and a heart suit too bad for 3h.
